I think it depends on what you want to call him- Grant or Carlton?

I think the flow is nice either way, so for me it comes down to what you're planning to call him...

I like Grant Carlton best b/c I like the name Grant best.

But IA with the other posters that I would choose whichever name he'll go by. Both my DH & my BIL are called by their mn's & my BIL has so much trouble with it that he's considering having it legally changed.

GL!

hello!! yeah i like the flow of carlton grant, but i like grant better as a name. think about this-how often will you be using the middle name?? or the name as a whole-not that often. i would go with grant carlton last name. jmo. take care!

hello! my hubbys family has a couple family members that go by their middle names and i dont like it. imo-if you liked a name that much, why didnt you just use that as the first name?? he has a cousin that goes by grant and i found out that his name is actually raymond after his father...he goes by grant so as not to confuse the issue. so, i think why didnt you guys just name him grant raymond and then you can call him grant, its his name ad youre still honoring dad with the middle name. but its all up to you and babys father...it would seem to make more sense to me to name him what you want him called first and use the other name as the middle one...
take care!!
